Aug 07, 2024 (newstodate): Is there a niche for developing seaplane operations in Europe?  
   At least two of Europe's seaplane operators think so, now forging an alliance to further their business concepts.
   Meeting at the Danish company Nordic Seaplanes' base in Aarhus‚ Hellenic Seaplanes and Nordic Seaplanes A/S have agreed to set up a strategic alliance aimed at revolutionizing the seaplane aviation sector in Europe.
   According to the two companies, the collaboration will constitute a major step forward in enhancing regulatory support‚ operational efficiency‚ and technological innovation for seaplane operations across the continent.  
   The agreement between the two seaplane companies is poised to set new industry standards and foster growth in this specialized aviation sector.
   The outcome of the meeting includes decisions on enhanced regulatory advocacy, operational synergies, research and development, training and pilot exchange, and joint marketing strategies.
   Receiving its first aircraft in August 2023, Hellenic Seaplanes operates flights between the Greek islands, while Nordic Seaplanes in the air since 2016 operates daily flights connecting Copenhagen and Aarhus as well as ad-hoc and charter flights.
